Equuleus One in a Krillion

8 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 90 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Equuleus: One in a Krillion, +100, 8 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Cassiopeia, Leo, Orion, or Scorpius — those are Plankton. It is also the One in a Krillion on this sheet, so the rare pick and the typeable pick are the same.

Skip Cassiopeia · Leo · Orion · Scorpius
